The occurrence of <SUP/>2,4,6-Trimethylbenzyl chloride is closely related to chlorine substitution in its molecular formula, which determines its behaviour during synthesis, purification, or degradation.
<SUP/>2,4,6-Trimethylbenzyl chloride (CAS 1585-16-6), molecular formula C10H19Cl and molecular weight 174.71 g/mol, is a CATO reference standard with documented purity and traceability.
Owing to chlorine substitution, <SUP/>2,4,6-Trimethylbenzyl chloride is typically white to off-white crystalline powder. Its solid-state physicochemical attributes — including a molecular weight of 174.71 g/mol — guide the selection of appropriate sample preparation and analytical techniques. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
